Street resurfacing is one form of preventative maintenance. Its purpose is to extend the life of the street and to keep it looking and riding just as if it was brand new.

The Public Works Department is responsible for maintaining 87 miles of roadway in the City of Campbell. For scheduling preventative maintenance work and to keep track of the condition of each roadway, the city utilizes a computerized pavement management system (PMS), which stores the condition data of all of our streets. This computer system has a module that predicts the proper time to perform the appropriate preventative maintenance work on each street utilizing the most current condition data for that street. Based on the amount of funding that is available each year, the PMS will recommend the most cost effect pavement maintenance program for the streets that year.

To find out more about the city’s Pavement Management Program, please contact the Public Works Engineering Division at 408-866-2150 or email us.

The City of Campbell administers an annual program that addresses sidewalk, curb, and gutter concerns. A resident may contact the city and complete a request for an inspection of a sidewalk and/or curb and gutter. The service request will be investigated and if the location meets the city’s criteria for removal and replacement, it will be placed on the sidewalk / curb and gutter repair list and considered for a future sidewalk replacement project. Generally, this is a no cost service to the resident. In order to be considered for this program, please email us or call the Maintenance Division at 408-866-2145 between the hours of 7 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. on Monday through Friday.

Storage containers may be stored on the public street only after an encroachment permit has been obtained from the Public Works Department. In addition, storage containers on residential streets are allowed only if a building permit has been obtained from the Building Division.

A storage container is defined as a private container that carries personal property or furniture. An example of a storage container is a large metal shipping container (one that is transported via ocean carrier, train or semi-truck, i.e. Maersk) or another example of a storage container is one that a storage facility (i.e. Public Storage) drops off for you to fill.

You may request an accessibility ramp to be installed at the corner of your street by contacting the Public Works Engineering Division at 408-866-2150 or via email.

The city apportions a percentage of the funds used for the Annual Sidewalk Maintenance program to install accessibility ramps, that equates to approximately 10 ramp installations each year. Please note that due to the limited funding, all accessibility ramp installations are done on a first-come, first-served basis.

The City of Campbell strongly supports the preservation of street trees. Trees beautify and enhance our neighborhoods, help to conserve energy, clean the air, and provide a home for wildlife. In 2005, Campbell was named a Tree City USA for the 23rd year in a row by the National Arbor Day Foundation for its commitment to trees.

The city will remove street trees only if they are dead or diseased beyond saving. Street tree removals requested by adjacent property owners for any other reason are allowed only in very limited circumstances. In most cases, these requests require the approval of the Parks and Recreation Commission and, if granted, require that the adjacent property owner arranges and pays for the removal and replacement of the tree with a large, 24-inch box tree.

To discuss street trees, please email us, or call the Maintenance Division at 408-866-2145 between the hours of 7 a.m. and 3:30p.m., Monday through Friday, and ask to speak to the Park Maintenance supervisor.

Trees on private property are the responsibility of the property owner. To inquire about the removal of a private tree, please contact our Planning Department at 408-866-2140 between the hours of 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday or email us.

The city’s response to ponding water along the gutter is limited. Significant ponding is often a result of excessive irrigation. Residents can reduce the amount of accumulated water in the curbed area by limiting the amount of irrigation applied to their lawn or landscaped areas.

Assuring that the curbed area is kept free of litter and debris is also essential. Since residential areas are swept once a month, it is important that cars are not parked along the curbed area during the scheduled sweep day. Allowing the street sweeper access to the curb and gutter to remove debris, assists in the mitigation of water.

If there are low hanging branches above the curbed area which prevent the street sweeper access to the curb, please contact the City of Campbell Public Works Maintenance Division at 408-866-2145, between the hours of 7 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., Monday through Friday and provide an address of the location along with your name and telephone number. You can also contact our office by email.

Due to budget constraints, the City of Campbell no longer administers an annual replacement program for sidewalk, curb and gutter areas.

A resident may contact the City and complete a request for an inspection of a sidewalk and/or curb and gutter. If the displaced area meets the City’s criteria for repair, the lift will be ground down or ramped. If this is not feasible, the flag of sidewalk will be removed and replaced with asphalt.

To report an uplifted sidewalk and or curb and gutter please contact the City of Campbell Public Works Maintenance Division at 408-866-2145, between the hours of 7 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., Monday through Friday and provide an address of the location along with your name and telephone number, or email us.

As an option, residents may apply for an encroachment permit with our Engineering Office and hire a contractor at their own expense to remove and replace the section of sidewalk. For more information about our encroachment permit process and applications, please continue reading or come in and visit us at City Hall, located at 70 North First Street in downtown Campbell. We are open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Please note that any work done within the public right of way requires an encroachment permit.

The City of Campbell operates and manages a community garden at Edith Morley Park. The approximate 0.5 acre garden site has 29-10 feet by 20 feet and 10-10 feet by 10 feet garden plots. Community garden plots are available for Campbell residents who want to have a garden to plant vegetables, herbs, or flowers, but don't have a suitable site where they live. Plots are issued on a year-to-year and first-come, first-served basis, with a limit of one plot per family. There is a $72 annual fee for the 10 feet by 20 feet plot and $36 fee for the 10 feet by 10 feet plot. This covers watering costs and upkeep of the garden. Currently, there is a waiting list.

Generally, the Museum collects objects, ephemera, audio recordings, photographs, moving images, and documents, relating to the history of the Campbell area with regards for its changing historic sphere of influence in the Santa Clara Valley. These collections consist of materials primarily related to the period of early local pioneer settlement, c. 1840 to present, but do not exclude Native American artifacts, both historic and prehistoric of local origin, which may be deemed significant for research or exhibit purposes. Some items that may not be appropriate for the permanent collection may make excellent additions to our educational collection.

Documenting, cataloguing, preserving, and storing artifacts are very costly. Every Museum must be discriminating about what is accepted because each has a defined mission and limited resources. Items are declined if they do not meet our collecting criteria, if the Museum already owns duplicates or similar representations, or if their condition is poor.

In order for a museum to incorporate new acquisitions into its artifact catalog, it must first have legal possession of that object. To complete the donation process, the Collections Specialist will provide two copies of a "Deed of Gift," the form that legally and irrevocably transfers ownership to the Museum. One copy is retained by the Museum, while the other is retained by the donor for their records. The Deed of Gift is the donor's official gift receipt and may be used as proof of donation for tax purposes.

When artifacts are exhibited, the names of donors are made public via the display label. A donor may specify how they wish their name to be listed (within the limits of length and good taste). Donors may not place special conditions on the way the Museum displays or labels the donation.

The Campbell Historical Museum & Ainsley House are owned and operated but the City of Campbell as a public trust institution. Your gift may qualify as a charitable deduction for federal income purposes. The Deed of Gift, which donors are required to sign to transfer ownership of the donation to the Museum, also serves as a tax receipt. The Museum advises you to seek the counsel of a tax professional.

No. Federal law prohibits the Museum from providing appraisal services or information on any object's value (real or perceived). In the interest of fairness and because of the potential for abuse of the Museum's good offices, its staff, volunteers, and all affiliates are strictly prohibited from providing valuations of any object at any time for any purpose. To locate an appraiser, consider contacting your regional branch of the Appraisers Association of America or the American Society of Appraisers directly. Also, books are available within specific subject domains that describe market prices.

Collections staff periodically assess the Campbell Historical Museum's collection and may elect to deaccession (remove) select artifacts. Criteria for deaccessioning include materials that no longer serve the Museum's mission, duplicate other holdings, are hazardous, cannot be adequately stored or preserved, or the artifact's components have physically deteriorated with age and time. Deaccessioning requires approval by the Senior Museum Specialist and Collections Specialist, and is never undertaken lightly. Materials removed from the collection cannot be returned to donors, but may be transferred to other museums or sold to fund collections care.

The Campbell Historical Museum actively collects objects today for display far into the future. With rare exception, the Campbell Historical Museum will not immediately display a donation and makes no guarantee that your donated artifact(s) will be displayed at any time. When the Museum develops an exhibition, the curator reviews the artifacts available and chooses those items that best suit the exhibition's theme and messages. However, all donations are cataloged and stored, and are accessible to the public through a research appointment.

Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a way for consumers to buy seasonal food directly from local farms. As a member of a CSA, you pay a fee to a local farmer at the beginning of the month or season and in turn you receive a weekly share of fresh produce.

The City of Campbell’s Orchard City Organics initiative is a partnership with local farms to offer CSA trial memberships to our residents and employees. Each week, participants will receive a CSA box of fresh fruits and vegetables at the Campbell Community Center, along with delicious recipes and farm updates. Join us to eat healthier and support local farms!

To determine your zoning district and applicable development standards, you may view the city's Zoning Map and Zoning Code online, or contact the Planning Division at 408-866-2140. The zoning map divides the city into different zoning districts such as residential, commercial, industrial, and public facilities. You may refer to the Zoning Code for further descriptions of the various zoning districts. Each zoning district is ascribed permitted uses, uses permitted with conditional use permits, and the development standards for those uses.

Each Commercial and Industrial Zoning District has associated permitted uses and conditional uses, which are listed in the Zoning Code. Permitted uses are allowed uses, whereas conditional uses are reviewed and considered under a Use Permit application. Please reference the Zoning Map and Code to determine your zoning, and Chapter 21.20, Commercial and Industrial Districts, of the Zoning Code for more information regarding uses.

The Zoning Code and the Subdivision Code regulate the subdivision of properties. The minimum lot size, lot width, and required street frontage are described in these codes and are based upon the zoning of your specific property. Please reference Chapter 21.08, Residential, of the Zoning Code; and, Title 20, Subdivision and Land Development, of the Municipal Code for more information.

The maximum height of fencing is generally six feet (including any lattice), and the fencing must be decreased in height to three feet, six inches in front yard areas and street side yard areas. Please reference Section 21.18.060, Fencing, of the Zoning Code for more information.

For developed single-family residential properties, a Tree Removal Permit is required if you want to remove an Oak, Redwood, Cedar, or Ash tree that is 38 inches or greater in circumference (as measured four feet from the ground). For all other properties (e.g. apartments, town home developments, commercial centers), a Tree Removal Permit is required for all trees that are 38 inches or greater in circumference (as measured four feet from the ground). Please reference Chapter 21.32, Tree Protection Regulations, of the Zoning Code for more information. For trees in the public right of way, contact the Public Works Department at 408-866-2150.

Sheds are allowed on private property within the allowable development standards (e.g. setbacks, lot coverage, and floor area ratio) for your zoning district. To determine your zoning district and applicable development standards, you may view the city's Zoning Map online or contact the Planning Division. You need a Building Permit to build or place a shed greater than 120 square feet on your property. Regardless of size, any shed needs to meet the minimum development standards. Please reference Section 21.36.020, Accessory Structures, of the Zoning Code for more information.

Home businesses are allowed in all residential zoning districts, must be conducted within a home (exclusive of an attached or detached garage), and must be clearly incidental and secondary to the use of the home. A Business License and a Home Occupation Permit are required to establish a business at your home. Please reference Chapter 21.44, Home Occupations, of the Zoning Code for more information.

Granny units are allowed on single-family (R-1) lots having a minimum lot area of 10,000 square feet, and are subject to the development standards (e.g. height, design, and parking) for granny units as well as the development standards (e.g. setbacks, lot coverage, and floor area ratio) for your zoning district. The maximum size for a granny unit is 640 square feet, exclusive of the garage space. A Building Permit is required to construct a granny unit on your property. Please reference Chapter 21.36.200, Secondary Dwelling Units, and Chapter 21.08.030, Single-Family (R-1) Zoning District, of the Zoning Code for more information.

To determine the exact location of your property lines, you will need to hire a land surveyor to survey your property. A land surveyor can identify property characteristics such as: property line location(s), size of the lot, sidewalk location, street center line, structures, trees, fences, and other pertinent information on site.

It is difficult to meet the requirements, but it may be possible for some properties if the required on site parking can be fully satisfied. The code requires that every single-family property have two parking spaces for each unit, one of which must be covered. Additionally, please note in planning on site parking that not more than 50% of the front yard area can be paved. Please contact the Building Division to determine if changes to the building need to be made to convert the structure to living space. Please reference Chapter 21.28, Parking and Loading, Table 3-1, Parking Requirements by Land Use; and, Section 21.18.070, Front Yard Paving of the Zoning Code for more information.

A business sign requires a Sign Permit issued by the Planning Division, and a Building Permit issued by the Building Division. For more complex sign projects, such as a Sign Program for a shopping center, a public hearing may be required. Please note that signs are not allowed on a residence for a home business. Please reference Chapter 21.30, Signs, and Code Section 12.44.060.G, Home Occupation/Operating Standards of the Zoning Code for more information.

The length of time to process a Development Permit depends on the complexity of the project. Examples of Development Permits include Site and Architectural Review, Use Permits, Minor Land Divisions, Subdivisions, etc. These types of permits, referred to as discretionary permits, involve some level of subjective (i.e. discretionary) review to render a decision. This review may include a public hearing(s), and project-specific conditions are applied when approved. The first step in reviewing a Development Permit is a 30-day review by applicable stakeholder city departments and agencies. If your plans do not comply with city department and/or agency requirements, you will be required to submit revised plans that will be reviewed. Subsequent city department and agency reviews take two to four weeks to complete from the time a revision is submitted. More complex projects (e.g. subdivisions, planned developments, etc.) involve a lengthier approval process, and may require environmental review in addition to Site and Architectural Review and public hearings. Subdivisions, for example, typically take approximately six months to process, and also involve additional processing time for post-approval requirements (e.g. map recordation of a final map for a subdivision). In addition to the complexity of the proposed project, work load can affect processing time. Please contact a planner at 408-866-2140 to discuss the scope of your specific project to get an estimated timeline for processing.

The length of time to process a Building Permit depends on the complexity of the project. Simple Building Permits, such as re-roof permits, may be able to be issued over the counter. Building Permits for residential remodels which meet applicable zoning and building codes generally take two to four weeks to issue. If your plans do not comply with a stakeholder city department and/or agency requirements, you will be required to submit revised plans that will be reviewed. Subsequent city department and/or agency reviews take two to four weeks to complete from the time a revision is submitted. In addition to the complexity of the proposed project, work load can affect processing time. Please contact the Building Division at 408-866-2130 to discuss the scope of your specific project to get an estimated timeline for processing.

The cameras serve two purposes. First, they help to operate the traffic signals by detecting the presence of vehicles at the intersection. Second, they help the traffic engineers monitor traffic flow and make signal timing adjustments from City Hall. Campbell does not record images from traffic cameras.

City of Campbell Municipal Code Section 10.12.040 provides the legal authority for the city traffic engineer to recommend to the City Council the installation of traffic signals. Justification for the installation of a traffic signal is based on warrants stated in the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices published by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). These warrants are based on certain traffic conditions that must be met, including minimum hourly traffic volumes and accident history. Based on an engineering and traffic survey, Public Works Department staff determine whether a traffic signal is warranted. Satisfaction of a warrant is not necessarily justification for a traffic signal. Delay, congestion, or other evidence of the need for right of way assignment must be shown. Also, funding must be available since the cost of designing and constructing a traffic signal can easily exceed $250,000. Finally, the City Council must approve the installation of a traffic signal. Contact the Traffic Engineering Division in writing to request a traffic signal or by email.

City of Campbell Municipal Code Section 10.24.065 provides the legal authority for the City Traffic Engineer to install curb markings. The city paints red curb to address a safety concern such as driveway visibility. Contact the Traffic Engineering Division in writing or email us to request red curb. The city currently does not paint red curb at fire hydrants since the California Vehicle Code Section 22514 already prohibits stopping, parking or standing any vehicle within 15 feet of a fire hydrant. Contact the Police Department when a vehicle is illegally parked at a fire hydrant at 408-866-2121.

City of Campbell Municipal Code Section 10.12.100 provides the legal authority for the city traffic engineer to install stop signs. Because a stop sign may cause inconvenience to motorists, stop signs should only be used where warranted based on stop sign warrants stated in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) published by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the MUTCD 2003 California Supplement. The Traffic Engineering Division will perform an engineering and traffic survey to determine the need for a stop sign. Contact the Traffic Engineering Division in writing or email us to request a stop sign.

City of Campbell Municipal Code Section 10.12.110 provides the legal authority for the city traffic engineer to install crosswalks. Crosswalk markings serve primarily to guide pedestrians into the proper path. Pedestrian crosswalks are intended to channelize pedestrians. Crosswalks do not necessarily increase pedestrian safety as they may give pedestrians a false sense of security. For this reason the Public Works Department's current policy is not to install new crosswalks at uncontrolled crossings. Contact the Traffic Engineering Division in writing or email us to request a crosswalk.

After being actuated, the pedestrian signal should display a white walking man for about six seconds. Pedestrians can step off the curb when safe and begin walking across the street. The pedestrian signal will begin flashing an orange upraised hand for several seconds to signify to subsequent pedestrians not to step off the curb. The upraised hand should flash long enough for someone who is already walking across the street to get completely across to the other side of the street. Those pedestrians who began walking across the street during the walking man signal should continue to walk across the street and onto the sidewalk on the other side of the street. The key thing to remember is the purpose of the flashing upraised hand is to communicate to pedestrians whether or not to step off the curb. If you missed the walking man signal, simply press the pedestrian push button again and wait for the next cycle.

The Public Works Department is very concerned about minimizing the inconvenience of traffic delays to the motoring public. Staff makes an effort to coordinate with utility companies and contractors to schedule lane closures for construction and maintenance activities during non-commute and non-lunch hours. However, factors such as worker safety, construction costs and productivity may justify allowing lane closures during peak periods in order to finish work in a fewer number of days.

Community volunteerism offers you the unique opportunity to turn your special interests into action. You benefit while making a positive impact on your community. And remember, volunteering makes you feel good!

This advisory commission will act in an advisory capacity to Campbell City Council on matters relating to youth and teens. Youth Commission members will be responsible for representing the youth voice in the Campbell community. Commissioners may recommend programs to city staff that would encourage positive youth experiences and or coordinate their own events or programs to allow youth and teens to have an increased involvement with local government.

Meeting topics may include current events relating to teens such as drug and alcohol awareness and education, safety, sports, education pressures and expectations, environmental concerns, community involvement and or specific local issues that Campbell teens face. Meeting agendas will be posted in advance in the effort to inform the public and encourage participation at meetings.

Youth Commission meetings will follow the Ralph M. Brown Act requirements. They will follow formality such as City Council, Planning Commission or Parks and Recreation Commission meetings for example. The Brown Act assures that meeting content is available to the public and that meetings are open and accessible to the public. Local municipalities follow the Brown Act as a means to include and keep the community informed on important policies and discussions in their communities.

The City of Campbell will provide a staff member to serve as a liaison to the Youth Commission. This person’s role will be to educate, guide and support the youth during their term. Because this is the first year they will be especially helpful to the commissioners to formulate a work plan and assure they are moving through their term and meetings with success.

Youth Commissioners may track their meeting and event time as volunteer/ community service hours. City staff can sign-off on documents from school or other agencies as necessary. Commissioners will receive a certificate and verification letter on city leader head at the conclusion of their term.

The first requirement for Campbell Youth Commission participation is being a resident of Campbell. If you are not a Campbell resident, you can find information on respective youth commissions for Campbell’s neighboring cities below.
